We really want to find that Welker/Edelman type. Hopefully McCloud or Proehl work out

IMO Cam Phillips will be more able to be that guy than those two.

Cheers Bandit.  That makes a lot of sense.  Seems they were much more invested in trying to find a slot than an outside guy.

No worries man. I occasionally know a thing or two is all.

I liked Kirk, but I'm definitely happier with Phillips + whoever else we picked up than packaging to move up for Kirk. Harrison was a home run in my book.

What’s the deal with Cam falling into the udfa pool? Thought he was considered draft worthy, is he injured

I agree. I thought he was a great fit, but I am guessing he needed to fall another 8-12 slots.

 

47. Arizona Cardinals: Christian Kirk, WR, Texas A&M

Well that's on Beane, he shouldn't have overpaid for moving up 5 slots! Word is the Bucs originally wanted 12 and 22, but Beane balked and offered the two 2nds. But why? Did Arizona, who only spent a 3rd and a 5th to move up, offer their first, their 2nd, and next year's 2nd? Seems like the Bills were bidding against themselves, especially if Tampa could backtrack from a two first round pick request.

The Bills were bidding with the Cards for Allen so had to pay more. The Cards, after the Bills took Allen, weren't bidding against anyone for Rosen because of the QB needy teams had already selected, so they didn't have to offer nearly as much.

He had sports hernia surgery right after the UVA game, and subsequently missed the bowl game and tested poorly because he was still recovering. BTW, look at his numbers this year, he actually sustained the injury in August and played all year with a sports hernia. He's tough and has heart, that's surely appreciated by McD.

The values of 12 & 22 and 12, 53 & 56 are very similar.  

 

1,980 vs 1,910.

 

If one of those is overpaying then the other is too.

Hopefully he doesn’t have ongoing issues like Kolbee listenbee did with the sports hernia. Could be a udfa gem!!

Oh yeah, I agree. The most expensive chart - Jimmy Johnson's - says it should've only taken 12 and 56 to move up to 7. I realize things are inflated because it is a QB's market, I'm just wondering if the Cardinals were offering a sweeter deal than their first and their 2nd. Is it a blind deal, wherein the best offer wins even if it means you're giving up too much? Or would the Bills be allowed to counter whatever offer the Cardinals had on the table? Didn't sound like Beane was bidding against the Cards, it sounded like he was proposing whatever deal he found necessary to move up.

All I know is I heard one of the NFL reporters say last week that he asked one of the gms about the trade value chart with the QBs and he said “you can take the trade value chart and shove it up your a** this year”
